Area Birders,
While looking around outside the house this morning I heard an unusual call
just a couple a hundred feet up the road. When I went to investigate I found
a Red-headed Woodpecker, a bird that we have only a few records for in
Buchanan. I hurried back to the house for the video camera, but the bird
kept moving away. It finally disappeared into the woods.
We also had our first brood of Eastern Bluebirds to fledge from our first
Buchanan County bluebird trail today. The brood of five healthy birds were
still being fed a couple of days ago, but this morning they were gone. The
nest was undisturbed, and it was time for the young ones to fledge.

Enjoy the birds,

Roger Mayhorn
